The reasons against gay marriage make about as much sense as selling your prettiest daughter to a man in return for 6 yoke of oxen

Well, those six yoke of oxen would be pretty... No...no...

That depends on where you are. The girl-to-yokes-of-oxen exchange rate varies geographically

I'm happy but I question the motives a bit.

Obama comes out in support on the day that 40% of WV Democrats say they'd rather have a felon in jail than Obama.

And now...

The day after Scott Walker wins, Hoyer's daughter comes out as gay.

I think Democrats are milking the gay issue as bad as Republicans milk the abortion issue.

Which really just tells me neither side wants to confront the hard issues.

I am happy about this but it could hurt his chances of being elected again.

Or it could just energize his youth base in a way that has not been seen since his first campaign.

Then again, not every older American is against gay marriage.

I would like to thank VP Biden for doing what he always does: put his foot in his mouth and force Obama to take a position on something.
